Just as he was flushed with shame and couldn't stand it any longer, Mo Huaifeng suddenly sent a message in the group chat "Gather within five minutes, one minute late, one month of salary will be deducted", setting off chaos amongst everyone including Yuan Wei and the coach, and so no one continued asking Ji Zhiyao all those questions.
Ji Zhiyao relaxed at once.
Seems like, with the exception of certain occasions, Captain was still very biased to him.
Since that was the case, for those things that they had done last night regardless of whether they should have or not, he shall bring himself to forgive Captain.
Anyway, he would have to face it sooner or later, right?
Cough.
Five minutes later, Nuo was the last to arrive at the tatami with a hand lifting his pants and a foot slopping in his track shoes.
Seeing that everybody was here, the stats analyzer stood up."Let's first find a place to get brunch, we'll be spending the whole afternoon in the eSports hub to work hard on training."
This suggestion was widely welcomed.
Hence Ji Zhiyao who had just had breakfast not too long ago was dragged to have another meal.
Having eaten and drank their fill, they walked into the eSports hub and asked for a room for battleteams to compete at the counter, the staff led them into their room.
There was a total of 10 computers in the room, the stats analyzer told everyone to settle down, then said, "Xiao hold on first. NoHomo, you play a match with the rest, let me take a look."
Ji Zhiyao nodded then found his seat to sit down.
There was something different about Heroes again, this time they faced a complete Japanese version.
Yet to everyone in Mix, as the corresponding meaning of every icon was already inscribed on their memory, there was totally nothing to fear.
As the usual Japanese version differed from the Korean and Chinese ones and it was too troublesome to yet again create more alternate accounts, the stats analyzer applied for five Japanese alternate accounts from the club, all of which were at the Challenger rank, who knew which corner the club actually dug them out from.
As it was only a daily training match, they picked a relatively more casual lineup. Very soon, the countdown ended and the match began.
Ji Zhiyao watched the mini-map while controlling his assassin in white to move towards the jungle. After he had harvested two creeps and the first wave of red buffs, he said into the ear-mic, "The opposing jungler has gone missing, Heng beware of the bushes around the middle lane."
Heng: "There's no one here for now, he probably went to counter-jungle, you okay?"
Ji Zhiyao: "Yeah, don't worry."
The positions of the remaining four opponents were all on the little map, only the jungler was missing. Since it was just one opponent, he could totally handle it.
Ji Zhiyao released an auto-attack towards a bush near the blue buff, as expected a figure leapt out. He unhurriedly dodged the attacks, while closing the gap between himself and the opposing jungler.
The opposing jungler was very sharp, swiftly moving backwards when he sensed that something was wrong. Yet at this time Ji Zhiyao rose to level three, his second ability was upgraded, with a flicker and his fingers swiftly running back and forth on the keyboard, he instantly rounded to the back of the jungler and killed him.
This was also the first blood of the match.
Once the sound effect sounded, Heng marveled, "Our Yao-god has become the representative of first blood, how is Captain and I supposed to feel as the two damage dealing centers."
Ji Zhiyao did not speak.
The stats analyzer gave Heng a knock on his head with his clipboard."If you continue to have so much dissolute talk, you can stay at the back to stare at the water dispenser."
Ji Zhiyao exhaled deeply.
Fortunately he did not speak earlier, otherwise wouldn't he be the other one to suffer a hit too?
Though he was always letting himself free in his mind, his hands didn't slow down at all. As the jungler was not in the opponent's jungle for now, he dashed off to go counter-jungle.
Yet the opponents were Challengers after all, Ji Zhiyao had just made his way there and the opposing ADC had already sent a signal to gather his teammates. Ji Zhiyao thought for a moment and silently retreated back into his own territory again.
At this time Nuo had groped his way to the middle lane to support Heng, Ji Zhiyao glanced at K and his Captain who were both lonely at helpless at the top and bottom lanes and decisively headed for the bottom lane.
K: "Damn NoHomo have you still got any sense of brotherhood? All you have in your eyes is Captain, what about me? My abilities are about to be totally depleted by the opposing ADC."
Ji Zhiyao played possum."Since when, you're obviously as firm as a rock in your 1v2. Captain is an elderly who cannot carry, I've got to go to the bottom lane to carry him to victory."
K: "Heh, adulterous male."
Ji Zhiyao pretended that he didn't hear anything at all and happily made his way to the bottom lane to find his Captain.
Mo Huaifeng was taking the opposing top-laner on, already at the critical moment, only needing the finishing move, Mo Huaifeng released his last ultimate ability.
Yet Ji Zhiyao suddenly leaped out of the bush, as he was too fast, he struck before Mo Huaifeng and took the kill.
As such, the international no. 3 ADC Fi-god's ultimate ability formally fell through.
Mo Huaifeng went quiet.
Ji Zhiyao coughed."Um, Captain, I forgot that I'm on fire wheels right now, that was purely an accident."
Mo Huaifeng: "Scram back to the jungle."
In the midst of the others' heartless laughter, the jungler-ADC team up officially announced their break up.
The match was slowly progressing, though the top lane was untouched, yet Heng and Mo Huaifeng had already pushed to the second turret in their respective lanes with the support of Ji Zhiyao and Nuo. At this point Mo Huaifeng glanced at the gold stats and said, "Jungler go deal with the dragons."
Jungler Ji Zhiyao: "Alright, yes sir."
Heng: "There are people beside the little dragon, need me to come with you?"
Ji Zhiyao zoomed out the map and realized that there wear indeed two people who were on the little dragon and thus said, "Sure, I don't have any armor equipment now, let's go together."
Hence Heng followed behind Ji Zhiyao, the team set to fight the dragon grew to a duo.
Yet Ji Zhiyao who had bought three pairs of accelerated boots was really too fast, Heng could not keep up. Ji Zhiyao arrived by the little dragon and struck out in all directions, releasing all of his abilities, but there wasn't any reinforcement behind him, as he abilities were in cooldown, he was directly stunned and killed by the opposing mid-laner.
Ji Zhiyao: "Too tragic. The ones who hear about this will be saddened and the ones who watched will wept."
Heng: "Brother, you've got wings on your feet. As long as your speed is fast, no one can catch up to you?"
Ji Zhiyao: "I forgot to take into consideration the actual situation, this was purely an accident."
After he was killed, Heng did not dare to take on two opponents alone, in the end the little dragon was taken away.
Meanwhile Ji Zhiyao had not respawned and hurriedly called out to the rest, "I still have 20 seconds to respawn, help me to watch over the big dragon, don't let that bunch of mutts from opposite lay their hands on it!"
Mo Huaifeng: "I'll do it."
He gave up helping to push down the last turret in the middle lane and hid in the bushes slightly closer to the big dragon to wait for Ji Zhiyao. In a moment, the opposing ADC and jungler came closer, seeming like they were here for the big dragon.
Ji Zhiyao stared at the respawn countdown, his expression constipated.
Yet Mo Huaifeng amply demonstrated the stability of an "elderly ADC" and did not let either one of them get a step closer.
Just then, Ji Zhiyao finally respawned and came stealthily from their back, both of them worked together to finish off the two enemies and kill the big dragon.
This 5v5 match ended there.
The stats analyzer did not say anything, only instructing them to start another match. Hence Ji Zhiyao stood up from his seat, the jungler became Xiao.
Heng remained unmoved.
